And yeah, there is a lot of beautiful but dumb engineering in our E53s. Tried changing your 3.0d engine air filter yet?
No worries buddy, you have helped me in the past so def no offence taken. Yeah there is a great video on youtube, I think the guy is called BMtroubleyou and an Aussie (but you can't have everything) he shows you exactly how to remove install it the engine air filter cover and even he says he is amazed that this is the actual BMW removal protocol. After watching that, its easier but still a bloody pain in my backside. Every year its scuffed knuckles and swearing at it. I hope someone got fired for that at BMW.
